“I am not a saint. I have also my faults in life. But corruption is a money has never been really an issue even to myself. I am in the thick of firing people,” sinabi ng Pangulo.

“I am firing another chairman of an entity in government maybe this week and another set of mga policemen,” saad sa speech ng Presidente na inilabas ng Malacañang kahapon. “I intend to fire another maybe 70 or 49 policemen and three generals for corruption in the next few days.”
Muling binigyang-diin ng Pangulo ang paninindigan niyang alisin ang mga tiwaling opisyal ng gobyerno at sinabing “this is really a purging regime.”

“The President stated that he will continue with the process of cleansing the bureaucracy,” sinabi kamakailan ni Roque. “He will now turn more of his attention to local government units including the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.”
